Chapter 174

The moment Leo called her Big Eyes, Amelie’s mind went blank.

After their divorce, she kept that identity hidden. She never imagined that she would hear him call her by that name again.

Somehow, she started feeling uncomfortable.

Gradually, her anger toward him for forgetting her was beginning to fade.

Leo hugged her tight.
